“If the only things about being pro-business are regulation and taxes, then you go, ‘Okay great, it’s whoever goes lower on regulation and lower on taxes,” he said. “But the rule of law is what has made America very special. It has made an environment for business that has been spectacular and a glowing beacon to the entire world.”

Reid Hoffman is also concerned about how a second Donald Trump Administration will harm America’s standing in the world saying, “It is the trust that other countries have in us in our system and how we interact, which allows our industries to export and allows the dollar to be the reserve world currency of the world. And that’s the reason why Biden is fundamentally, no matter what, more pro-business than Trump.”

“The rule of law is what has made America very special,” Hoffman said criticizing Donald Trump’s clear contempt for America’s system of checks and balances. “It has made an environment for business that has been spectacular and a glowing beacon to the entire world.”
